罗马书 Romans 4:25
罗⻢书 4:25 耶稣被交给⼈,是为我们的过犯;复活,是为叫我们称义。(现代标点和合本)
Romans 4:25 who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification. (NKJV)
圣经清楚地告诉我们,耶稣被交给⼈,意味 着祂的牺牲、被钉在⼗字架上,为我们的罪⽽死。每当我们思想祂在⼗字架上的死时, 我们必须相信我们已经完全被赦免了。 我们也相信主耶稣在第三天为我们的称义⽽复活,意味着我们现在已经完全的公义。我们被赦免是为了能够被称为义。因为祂必须 在⼗字架上死了,才能复活。倘若祂没有死,就不能复活。 倘若你没有被赦免,你就不能被称为义。因此,这⼀切的根本是在对⼈说,⽆论他们的身份或是背景如何,他们的罪已经完全被赦免。圣经说,因着祂完美的献祭,主耶稣已经使那些得以成圣的⼈永远完全。
The Bible tells us clearly that Jesus was delivered up, meaning He was sacrificed, nailed to the cross, and died because of our sins. Every time we reflect on His death on the cross, we must believe that we have been completely forgiven. We also believe that Jesus was raised on the third day for our justification, meaning that we are now completely righteous. We have been forgiven so that we can be made righteous. Because of His death on the cross, Jesus was able to be raised. If He had not died, He could not have been resurrected. If you have not been forgiven, you cannot be declared righteous. Therefore, the foundation of it all is to tell people that they have been completely forgiven of all their sins, regardless of who they are or what their background may be. The Bible says that by one perfect sacrifice, Jesus has perfected forever those who are being sanctified. Amen!
